Tires Continental or TIGAR

I ran the Continental Extreme DWS on my last M3 year round here in Colorado. They did really well in the summer mountain drives and served me just fine in the snow.

I have them on the MK5 GTI my son drives and will be swapping them onto my 2017 R. Love them for an all around tire.

The DWS' are awesome in the wet. But we had nearly no snow last winter so I can't tell you much about that, but I have high hopes.

Switched out my OEM Conti’s for the DWS 06’s last winter for ski season (So Cal). I have my OEM’s back on for now but once they are worn out I will put the DWS’s back on and never look back.

good tyres got a set on my 01 TT, handling, ride, + traction is great but not a lot of miles on them as this is my summer fun car!!

Absolutely great tires. I’ve used them year-round on other vehicles, and they are the best all-around performers I’ve encountered.

I have run the Conti DWS as my tire of choice on my previous Mk. 6 GTI and current 2016 R. I owned the GTI in Eugene, OR where we had a LOT of wet weather and snow was readily available close by or driving south to visit California.

This will be my third season with the DWS 06 on 18¨ Enkei Racing PF01 wheels on my 2015 R, same as my Michelin 18¨ PSS's are mounted on for summer use. As has been noted here by others these tires have performed extremely well, although not exposed to some of our extreme amounts of snow we've had recently.

I have had the Contis and the Michelins (on 18s). Both are great. Contis were way better in the wet in my opinion. The softer sidewalls also delivered a smoother ride, but gave a bit in performance (push/under steer).

The GTI would have performed much better on the summer tires, those all-seasons really are terrible.
